'Please publish this to the main game': Arma Reforger players go wild for April Fools' gag that purports to turn the military simulator into a battle between toy soldiers

April Fools' day's carousel of nonsense hasn't been slowed by its head-on collision with Easter this year, with multiple spoof announcements from the games industry leaking through Monday's chocolatey outer shell. One particularly elaborate gag has captured the imagination of the Arma Reforger community, with developer Bohemia Interactive surprise "announcing" a new game mode where everyone plays as toy soldiers.

Titled, 'Tiny Wars', the alleged update switches out Reforger's realistic landscapes and authentic Cold War setting for a diminutive conflict between red and green plastic troops. The trailer, which you can view above, shows the two toy sides waging polyethylenic war across a military office space, clambering over a mountainous jumble of green army crates, crossing bridges made out of ring-bound notepads, and establishing defences in a fort made out of Duplo-style building bricks.
